Since I was a child, we always had cats. So, I am a cat-person (mostly). I don't want to say I hate dogs- once I had a puppy, Alsatian, and she was the smartest 'person'!

When I moved to the USA, my future husband had two cats, which was kind of unusual for me because my family always had only 1 pet... Peter and Stripy- two sisters. Yes, Peter was a 'girl'. By the way, my husband's name is also Peter, his father was Peter, and his son is Peter - why not to call cat Peter, right?

Did you try to slide a nice big bead on a jump ring and it did not "want" to go there? Today I want to show you how make jump rings with gemstone, or any “beads” on them. In other words, you will be able to create fancy jump rings, which can be used as connectors in a variety of projects.

A week ago I came back from Tucson where I was teaching jewelry making classes. I am a teacher in the third generation, so I really enjoy this work. While teaching in Tucson, I caught myself at calling my adult student "kids" :)
I had 24 kids students this year , so I got 24 new friends from all over the world.
To make long story shorter, I'll show you pictures (I am a bad writer, by the way).

This is a really international class: Catherine from Australia, Ida from Colombia, and me- from Russia:)
